DERBY COUNTY v FOREST GREEN ROVERS League 1 #21 | |
Pride Park Saturday 17th December 1500 | |
Just wondering how many meat pies and Bovril drinks will be consumed in the away end on Saturday? | |
Derby come in to this match on the back of a disappointing result v Burton. Disappointing because we need to start putting these games to bed if we are serious about progress. Burton are at the bottom for a reason and yet we still lack the nous to unlock teams such as this. | |
Derby go into the match unbeaten in 11 but need to start getting consistent 3 points instead of one. This is the first time we have met FGR in a league match but remember there was a time when we met Burton for the first time in a league competition and we still have not beaten them. | |
Saturday could see a start for Curtis Davies, our talismanic captain but he needs to watch out for Fozzie who is excelling at centre half. | |
I am also waiting for the stars to align for Didzy. Just feel he is very close to one of those performances where some team will be ripped to shreds.....or maybe not.... | |
Its still going to cold on Saturday, so wrap up warm but the forecast for next week will be warmer which will be nicer for picket lines for those with principles - albeit in desperation | |
Team news:- Wildsmith (GK), Forsyth, Hourihane, Cashin, Barkhuizen, Bird (C), Collins, McGoldrick, Mendez-Laing, Smith, Sibley | |
Subs:-Loach (GK), Davies, Roberts, Thompson, Knight, Osula, Dobbin | |
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JORVIK πΎπΎπ
